Book Description

September 28, 1998
RISE OF AN ANGEL

Hailed as a "global diva" by Time magazine, French-Canadian pop star Celine Dion has broken into the singing stratosphere, joining the pantheon of such legends as Barbra Streisand and Whitney Houston. Possessing an unforgettable voice that effortlessly soars across five octaves, Dion dazzled Europe with her winning mix of dance music and lush ballads before taking the ultimate leap into stardom on the world's toughest stage--the United States.

With the release of her soul-searing single "The Power of Love," Celine-fever quickly gripped North America. Her next album, Falling into You, won Grammy Awards for Album of the Year and Best Pop Album. Now, at the pinnacle of her career, which path will Dion take next? A VOICE AND A DREAM looks to her bright future as it plumbs her engaging past. Get the scoop on her fairy-tale marriage to manager Rene Angelil, the health struggles she suffered under a grueling workload, and her colorful experiences growing up in a large, musical family. A behind-the-scenes look at the world's hottest diva, A VOICE AND A DREAM is an exclusive glimpse at a real-life Cinderella.


Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Celine Dion, as everyone knows, is an international star. But first and foremost, she is a Canadian national treasure. And how appropriate it was that our Canadian sales director introduced us to the idea that Celine is a superstar, a celebrity whose story would appeal to fans on both sides of the border - - and around the world.

Next, we found the perfect writer
for this biography: Richard Crouse, a young Canadian journalist who has covered the music scene during his entire career.
The result is a beautiful book about Celine's uniquely inspirational story. A VOICE AND A DREAM is also filled with stunning photos of this talented diva, from her early years to today.

About the Author

This book is one of the best that I have ever read. As a dedicated Celine fan I loved this book. It took you from the very beginings of her life as a young child in a house with 14 brothers and sisters,all the way through to her rise to the top. A must have for any Celine fan out there wanting to know some great imformation about this singing angels life.

3.0 out of 5 stars Detailed Celine's Life With A Little Extra Hear and There, January 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: A Voice and a Dream: The Celine Dion Story (Mass Market Paperback)
This was my first Celine book that I have read. I thought that it was great, but true Celine fans knew everything that the author had wrote. We want to know the untold stories, and the secrets of how Celine really is offstage.

4.0 out of 5 stars Simple and succinct, January 16, 2002
This review is from: A Voice and a Dream: The Celine Dion Story (Mass Market Paperback)
Very short biography on Céline Dion, succinct and concisely put. Suitable for a person interested on the brief history of one great singer, but not so for a fan. I would recommend the Official Biogaphy or My Story, My Dream for someone who wants to learn more about Céline Dion. There are a few pictures printed on glossy paper, but I feel are too small. The quality of the paper is mediocre and ages have yellowed my book. It is not quite pleasant. But generally, quite a smooth and memorable read.
